Can I take my old hard drive, install it in the new computer, uninstall everything on the new computer's hard drive and transfer the operating system and files from my old hard drive?

You can make an image of your old hard drive and copy it to the new one ... but if its the operating system drive ... then you'll have to see what os is it ... if its a windows 95 or 98 or ME then it'll work fine on the new computer .. but if its windows 2000 or xp then you'll have to reinstall it on the new computer.
